Premium Member Bittern
 a faint booming note 
 deep in the everglades marsh ~ 
 a bird seldom seen 

 it's distinctive call 
 like a pebble drop in stream ~
 elusive bittern

Bittern Mantra
I am the reed

Beak to the sky
Swaying in the breeze

I am the reed

I don't want to die
Don't see me please

I am the reed

There's nothing here
But swaying grass

I am the reed

My greatest fear
Please just pass

I am the reed

I am the reed

I am the reed

by Michael R. Burch

Preposterous bird!
Inelegant! Absurd!

Until the great & mighty heron
brandishes his fearsome sword.
